Pros & Cons
Creality Falcon2 40W
What we like
- Most powerful open-frame Falcon2 diode array (8×5.5W)
- Cuts 20mm cork or thin 0.15mm stainless steel in a single pass
- Integrated, adjustable air assist
- Fast 25,000 mm/min rated speed
Watch out for
- Open frame at 40W is a real exposure risk without an added hood and glasses
- No camera or WiFi, manual focus only
- Price range overlaps confusingly with the enclosed Falcon2 Pro 22W
Creality Falcon2 Pro 60W
What we like
- Highest power in the enclosed Falcon2 line — cuts 22mm basswood or 30mm acrylic in one pass
- Bundles the 1.6W fine-detail module standard
- Cleaner cuts at high power with less carbonization per Creality's own comparisons
- Enclosed Class 1 design with camera and air assist standard
Watch out for
- Heaviest (19.5kg) and most expensive Falcon2 Pro tier
- No true autofocus
- Large 664×570×328mm footprint needs real desk space
